Two Worlds

How my existence has such twists and turns
To take something so precious and destroyed in one breath
I stand in the middle looking on either side of me
To the left something I once knew, old faded barely alive
And to the right something fresh, vibrant full of life and hope
Each side wants to exist but how?
I stare upon the old lifeless existence and so long to cast it aside
Why does it not just fade into the darkness and only become a memory
I look upon it with new eyes, laughing at how pathetic it is
To stand their pulling for life, pulling at me
I turn my head swiftly not wanting to look back
Moving to what is fuller, more prevalent
I can feel the tug, but only for a brief moment
As the grasp slips into lifelessness and I move into strength
What I leave behind is nothing to me now
For it is humanity..............
